Good job on the acrostic form....hard to do....

love the lines:

"Never ceasing causing
Gangrene of life"

^great! That's just what it is....perfect metaphor.....

"rewind the
Clock of life to
Kill a memory
Escaping mental
Damage"

^would be great to do....or maybe just erase all those bad thoughts...

Nicely written ...good flow and form...Take care, Debbie

Kay
Excellent job on this form. Imagery and word choices are great. What a very sad piece.

Wishing
I could rewind the
Clock of life to
Kill a memory
Escaping mental
Damage

I think this is a wish that everyone would love. Great job on this Kay!
Love Cindy

Wishing

Kay you have reached into my mind and captured my thoughts dear friend.
I love this entire piece from beginning to end .... as I also do love this form also.

After reading the entire piece I sat back and when "WOW" .... for the title totally matched the piece.

Awesome read .... and a wonderfully penned acrostic Kay

Kay,

In those lines you have written down so much information about your childhood.
The sound of a deranged person laughing is the most frightening sound in the world...
Almost impossible to forget and as one grows older the memories seem to become more vivid instead of fading to the background...very hard to deal with.
I know.

Take care,

5/5 Ingrid

Fantastic write Key!!.. such strong and powerful expression.. Deep, dark and hunting.. chilling.. a great Write!

This is very clever. I'm not overly familiar with acrostic poetry but you haven't let the discipline of the form restrict your flow and sense of imagery.
Well done and Merry Christmas!
